Pietro Mascagni: Anthem For Spring (SSAA)

A delightful adaptation of Mascagni's Chorus from Cavalleria Rusticana for Treble Voices with Piano accompaniment, adapted and with words by Sigmund Spaeth.

In its original operatic setting it is a triumphant song sung by the people of a small Sicilian Town. Spaeth has captured this spiritual exuberence in a wonderful hymn to the awakening and re-birth that are the essence of the Spring season.
